GH-0747 runs water and went 7.3 at 184mph! lol... its the tune up guys forget about billet for now unless you have 300k to throw at a full chassis prorwd car and develop it for a year or two as i reckon you would still break billet blocks / heads till they get the design right, you have to break it first, to know how to make it stronger / more efficient. I was going to get 2 done when i had my vl, a guy was doing them for 8k each but i stacked the car before I could break the engine on 52 pounds.

Contact Godzilla Motorsports as they have 2-3 billet blocks being made so maybe a good opportunity...
